Ok, it's official: Casey Stack is booking his trip, and we are 'go' for his 1-day laser safety presentation. The cost to attend in person is $70. It will be held in the conference room at the Holiday Inn Express in Conover, NC, at exit 132 off I-40.
The presentation will start on Monday, August 23rd, at 9 AM and will run until 5 PM. We'll take breaks as needed, and probably have lunch brought in to save time. (Thinking about ordering out for pizza or something.) You will receive a stack of paper hand-outs (basically copies of the slides he uses), so you won't need to take a lot of notes.
If you can't attend in person, there will be limited access to the seminar via a WebEx live internet broadcast. The fee to view the Webex broadcast is $25. If you also want copies of the hand-outs, I can send them to you if you pay the shipping. (Electronic copies are discouraged for copyright reasons.) You will require a log-in ID and a password to access the Webex feed. You will be able to ask questions either via the chat window or via your own webcam, if you have one set up. (Not sure how easy this will be to manage; we may need to pause every 30 min or so to answer web questions, depending on how it goes.)
Details about the meat of Casey's presentation can be found in this thread, but to summarize, the first half will be about general laser safety, while the second part will deal with the specifics of laser projector compliance and how to obtain a variance.
If you plan to attend, please send your paypal payment of $70 to me at adburns@sc.rr.com. (Webex viewers $25.)
